TOKIO Kakeru(2012)

TOKIO Kakeru is a Japanese variety show featuring the pop idol group TOKIO as hosts who challenge celebrity guests with inventive psychological games. Each episode tests a different skill: taste buds in the "Machigaetera" game, acting ability in "Usotsuitera," kanji knowledge through restaurant menu ordering, and appraisal skills in a treasure-hunting game. The format reveals the personalities and competitive sides of TOKIO members as they interact with their guests. Lighthearted and unpredictable, the show offers viewers an intimate look at how the group operates off-stage while watching them navigate absurd challenges alongside their visitors.
